I enlisted Em’s Cafe to cater a bridal shower. They were very responsive to all emails, the prices were reasonable, and the food was a complete hit with the guests! They arrived right on time for delivery and the whole process was seamless. Thank you again for providing the best brunch food for my event! I would definitely use them again for future events!

Disappointed in this company the food was a day old the Buns were as hard as rocks and they were portioning out food that we purchased , they did not supply what they said they were to and then she wishes the the newlyweds wrong names, they were not even willing knowing that it was a day old food to give us any credit back I would not recommend this company at all

As Em’s Cafe neighbor at FadePro barbershop, she very dangerous ?The amount of delicious pastries and soft,fluffy croissants is mind blowing!I didn’t pack breakfast today so I got an egg and cheese croissant with a creamy, spicy sauce! *chefs kiss* !

I highly recommend! Spoke with Emma just 2 days before my daughter’s NCSU graduation party as the caterer I usually use was no longer in business and she stepped in and was fantastic:) she has vegan , vegetarian options which is what I needed as my daughter and her bf are vegan. Her vegan wraps were actually gone before the other foods! Delicious! Everything was great , the presentation was fabulous and the desserts were delicious and cookies were out of this world and beyond expectations! Will definitely be using your services again and several friends asked about you as well :) I wish I had taken better pictures of the food to post here but with hosting and everyone eating realized too late I didn’t get close ups!! But I highly recommend Emma if you need a caterer and will be doing business again at my next party!!

Ugh. I really hate to do this but after calling the cafe to leave them feedback, I feel like I have no choice.We went in to the cafe early morning on 11/23. I bought a brownie, coffee cake, and a pumpkin roll. When I was there, I specially asked the “pastry chef” if the items were baked the “same day.” I even said, “were these baked this morning?” Both times, she said yes.We get home, try the brownie. Absolutely horrible. Completely dry. The edges were hard and just not good at all. The coffee cake was great.Fast forward to Thanksgiving day, we brought out the pumpkin roll and it was inedible. It couldn’t be cut, it was dry, and just all around not what you would expect from a bakery. A family member brought one from the local grocery and it tasted incredible. How can a speciality bakery mess this up so terribly?I called this bakery this morning and was told the items weren’t fresh and the pumpkin roll was made the day before I went in. The lady I spoke to blamed it on the pastry chef’s language as English isn’t her first language. Unacceptable.We love the pop tarts at this bakery but blaming the old and inedible pastries on a language barrier is unacceptable.Disappointing.

Her food is F'n amazing. When you go around that area for a coffee next door, deff stop in for her leek soup, pesto chicken salad sandwich and the freshly baked cheesecake pumpkin poptarts.

Grabbed lunch here with my boys. Excellent Sandwich and salad. Had the Turkey and Brie, pesto chicken wrap which were both good, but Grilled Chicken Salad was probably our favorite.

Em's Cafe and Catering created these beautiful and delicious cookies for a bridal shower! I described the theme as "pink floral with a little bit of gold" and Chef Em rocked it!! these cookies were prettier than I could have even imagined and I am obsessed with the gold accents. did i mention they also tasted SO good!!

Tried a vanilla cupcake with blueberry compote filling. So pretty and delicious. The icing is a perfect buttercream.

Great service. The staff was very helpful and informative. The pesto chicken salad sandwich I got was very good.

I live within walking distance to (em)’s cafe. I will be walking there more often now that I experienced their famous Angel Cake and scones. It’s truly worth the walk, drive, flight, bus or train ❤️
